A must-see that should be at the top of your list when visiting London is the Changing of the Guards at Buckingham Palace, Westminster. The guards that stand outside the palace to protect the Queen are not only ceremonial, but a selection of the top active soldiers in the British Army.

To stay close to the royal palace, consider staying in a vacation rental in Westminster. For example, this one bedroom vacation rental in Westmister (LN-863) is located near Buckingham Palace where you can experience the Changing of the Guard.
